Case study: Assessing risk in Lebanon
An investment bank was considering a significant position in Lebanon; however, it was concerned about the country’s political volatility and found it challenging to get a clear picture of its future.
Our team was tasked with answering several highly specific questions concerning political risk, security and economics in Lebanon, as well as on the potential impacts on the bank’s interests in the country. Having devised many questions concerning the intentions, decision-making and political leanings of key stakeholders and political players, we undertook high-level source enquiries.
In a short space of time, we were able to provide direct answers and paint a detailed picture of the emerging political landscape.
Case study: Intelligence gathering in Papua New Guinea
A major extractives client investing in Papua New Guinea commissioned our team to undertake three separate studies into different areas of their political risk exposure, supplemented by ongoing intelligence collection and monitoring.
The studies, which drew heavily on human-sourced intelligence due to the paucity of open-source information, covered assessments on political stability, social stability, conflict risk and macroeconomic risk, as well as detailed intelligence for community engagement decision-making.
Based on our reporting, our client was able to actively limit its business exposure, anticipate national and local disputes and make vital decisions based on sound strategic intelligence and expert analysis.
